Thread: Moosmum!!

MM, how are the blood sugars looking now?
I keep meaning to ask as you don't have long to go (I used to hate it when people said that and I felt like a whale and every day seemed an eternity)
, so hopefully the sugars are good and you are on track for a nice, fast home birth

But not before the 12th May

Thankyou for thinking of me
The sugars are not too bad tbh, mostly ranging between 5's and 7's. The highest they have been, and only the once, was 10.0 post meal
I did speak to the diabetic M/W who doesn't seem overly concerned so I'm just plodding on with them. I have had a couple of lax days where I've not done them :-0 but am trying to keep on top with it all (hmmm easier said than done in my manic house! LOL)
Bump is still measuring V V slighly smaller than my dates and def feels smaller than DD2 did now so I don't think I'm cooking a massive baby here (OMG famous last words or what!! LOL)
I have spoken to the BF specialist at work re starting to 'harvest colostrum' incase she does become a bit jittery after birth and am now starting to express and save my colostrum for her just in case. All is still set for the HB, am ordering my birth pool next week and M/W is dropping the HB kit off in 10 days!!!!.

Hmmm me thinks this is actually real, omg I think I have been in denial so far

Anyone fancy a 4 yr old or a 20mnth old for a bit?????

Hids, I'm sure she'll still be well cooking on the 12th but if she comes at yours, well at least you are a HB diva so I'll just grab you and push!

Poor Barry, I promise to do my best not to subject you to 'seeing my bits' Barry

Right, great Hids, that's settled then. I'll pack them a case each and my girls can come live with you till the baby is....hmmm shall we say 18????

Sure But you get my older 3

Trust me I'd be getting the better deal

Ohh, Hids if it does happen at yours Barry can be the birth partner and you can video it for us.
It could be the first online MO birth

Your numbers sound great MM, and I sure it will all go fantastically well.
As far as the kids go I can't offer to take them, but I am happy to send around an opinionated nearly three year old and a very sweet one year old to keep them company for a bit.....
